Wheres the measurements
Very informative.Thnk you.
This is such a helpful tutorial! Thanks for showing how to do this with a serger, I can't wait to give it a try!
Do you have to put elastic if it’s not spandex?
You don’t iron on no stretch interfacing on first?
So helpful thank you so much!!!
Where do i buy the stuff
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! My daughter embellished a white body suit for an incoming Taylor Swift concert. She realized that she needed to put a zipper in after gluing on almost all the rhinestones. I do not have a lot of experience sewing especially on stretch. You're video was a lifesaver! I still can't believe I was able to do this and it looks pretty darn good for my 1st time. I still have to clean up the ends. Going to try and send you a pic.😀
Thankyou😊
can you please do a pattern making for spandex, delving into tips and tricks for the appropriate way to cut spandex! thank youuu
Such a clean and straightforward tutorial, thank you!
Thank you so much for sewing me exactly how to spandex fabric.
This video was my saving grace for the beaded fringe! Thank you 🦄💕
Thank you
What sewing machines would you recommend for the low end price to practice on,?
Grazie ! Meraviglioso!❤
Does anyone have a link for rhinestones and sequins on aliexpress?
Does anyone have a link for rhinestones and sequins on aliexpress?
I’m trying to make some fully blinged out bodysuits and I’m trying to figure out how far apart to the crystals have to be? Can I do this on a skims bodysuit?
Do the sequins have to be that far apart or could you put them close together?
This was awesome! Thank you
Great tutorial, works perfectly. Thanks
Can this be done on a silk fabric?
Thank you so much!!! ❤
does this also work for lycra?
What kind of elastic do you use and why.
So impressive
Thanks for the step by step. Hadn't sewn in awhile.
Straightforward and helpful. thank you. also, I might have missed it but what type of thread did you use? I know there’s stretch thread but have never used it and don’t have it in my sewing stash.
Straightforward and helpful. thank you
Found your channel, blimey, so great and everything is shown!! Thank you so much
✨️🌟🥀✨️🌟🥀
thannnnnnnkk uuuuu
I'm in love with the second method, with the cleaner finish! I was wondering why the seam allowance is needed, since you sew the elastic into the actual seam? Do you think making it closer to dbl the width of the elastic would make a more snug fit once turned? Has anyone tried it? Maybe I'll try and report back!
If you do it tighter, the elastic will buckle inward.
Thank You 🪡
Where did you get those sequins?
I've got links to everything in the blog post - it's linked in the video description.
Unfortunately most of the sequins linked are no longer available. Do you have any ideas for substitutions? Thanks!
Great job at explaining what you were doing. I really appreciated that you showed how and when to apply tension. I’ve always struggled with trying to sew spandex.
Do you use normal thread or a specialty thread?
Polyester thread, Guttermann or Mettler
If I bought beaded fringe trim, can I sew it with the trim onto the inside of the bodysuit without having to take the beads off and individually sewing them onto the bodysuit like this? I'm trying to shave some time off this project lol
where is that bodysuit base from? i can't find anything with a zipper like that
I've got a link to the post in the description - with links to the posts to make one.
Thank you for the subtitles. It really helps me follow along
I wanted to see it with the suit
Do you have your knife off on the serger so it doesn't cut elastic?
No, I just don't have the elastic under the knife.
Thank you,very helpful and and so well explained!
❤❤❤
this is an awesome tutorial, thank you!
Hello, your bodysuit looks AMAZING. I would love it if you would make a tutorial video on how you apply the red appliques on spandex, it looks really complicated. You videos are easy to follow and your kind enough to share all your great knowledge and techniques. Thank you ❤
I did the applique tutorial in a post! The link in the description goes to part one of the tutorial, part two is the applique tutorial.
I love how casual you are with measuring and stitching in elastic. I would be freaking out trying to get everything even 😂 Please keep us upto date on this bodysuit. Would love to see the end result. Keep your great videos coming.
Thañk you so much,love your directions!
Very well demonstrated
